Congratulations! The Clippers announced their star-chasing plan, Harden welcomes the news, Ballmer is not in a hurry to renew his contract with Powell

On June 5, the Los Angeles Clippers, which own Kawhi Leonard and James Harden, became one of the most disappointing teams this season. After losing to the Denver Nuggets in the first round, and losing to the team led by Jokic, Murray and Westbrook, they will focus on strengthening the offseason. It should be emphasized that the team management announced its star-chasing plan, chasing some star players, some older superstars, and some veterans with experience in winning the championship, Antetokounmpo and Kevin Durant, are worth paying attention to.

Chasing some superstars and veterans who have won the championship experience, partnering with Harden and Leonard, is an acceptable result for boss Ballmer. When he lost to the Denver Nuggets in the first round and lost to the abandoned player Westbrook, it means that the intuitive dome that spent $2 billion to build at home, lacks a leading brother and a championship flag to prove that it is not the Lakers' dominance. This season, Durant played for the Phoenix Suns, with 62 games, averaging 26.6 points, 6 rebounds, 4.2 assists per game, playing for the Milwaukee Bucks, Antetokounmpo played for 67 games, averaging 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, 6.5 assists per game. If you join, it can help the Clippers increase their honor.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to paying attention to Durant and Antetokounmpo, All-Star guard James Harden has ushered in new news. Michael Scotto revealed that Harden, who returned to the Western Conference All-Star this season and joined the All-Star team, and his team tend to give up the player option worth $36.35 million a year in the 2025-2026 season, and is willing to continue to cooperate with the Los Angeles Clippers. More and more people believe that the contract time of the former will be consistent with the small card. In the 2024-2025 season, James Harden played 79 regular season games, averaging 22.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 8.7 assists and 1.5 steals per game. It is expected to sign a two-year contract with President Frank, with a total amount of about $75 million.

You should know that during this offseason, the best sixth man Powell is eligible to sign a four-year, $128.5 million contract extension with President Frank. Considering the former, there is still one year left, the Los Angeles Clippers are not in a hurry to do so. Boss Ballmer hopes to maintain considerable salary space flexibility in the summer of 2027. By then, the team is only left with Zubac, and if necessary, the former can be used as a bargaining chip in exchange for other stars to join. This season, Powell played in a total of 60 regular season games, averaging 21.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 steals per game, with a three-point shooting percentage of 41.8%, but the playoffs were sluggish.

As the Los Angeles Clippers announced their star-chasing plan, Antetokounmpo and Kevin Durant are all one of the goals. After all, there are not many experienced players who can win the championship, so LeBron and James cannot leave the Lakers. Harden ushered in new news, which is that he tends to give up the option of executing the player next season and instead signs a two-year contract. It should be noted that Ballmer is not in a hurry to renew his contract with Powell, mainly to keep his salary space flexible, make great strides in 2027, and strive to be home to the Intuition Dome and hang a championship flag.
